Vehicle Detail
Regretfully I must sell my 300SD turbodiesel sedan. Car has just 170,350 miles, four practically new tires purchased two months ago, interior in very good condition for a 32 year old car. Diesel motor runs strong, needs idle adjustment, rough at idle. New fuel pump and filters. Body is fairly straight, paint is decent, but does have a few rust spots, car was originally sold in Hawaii. Recently, some kid broke off the antenna, should be an easy fix. Original Becker radio works fine. Car is very reliable and comfortable, seats are real nice, feels very solid and safe on the road. Took the car on a 500 mile trip a month ago with no issues. Radiator and hoses in good shape, could use a flush and fill. Needs a few things, like trans fluid service, new belts. Has recent oil change and new air filter. Previous owner replaced key (starter) tumbler, injector nozzles, glow plugs, battery. Need servo replaced for A/C. Trunk is in great shape, all gauges work, some non-essential dash lights out. Car has it’s idiosyncracies, as one would expect for a car this age. But this is a quality older vehicle, built to last. Easy restoration, and this car could be a cream puff. Motor has lots of life, these engines are bullet proof, just change the oil, filter, fuel filters. Email with any questions.
